Flu Vaccinations Available in the Midlands

 

The single best way to prevent seasonal flu is to get vaccinated each year!

Influenza (the flu) is a serious illness you can get from anyone infected.

Prisma Health is helping protect you and your family with FREE flu shots throughout Richland, Lexington, Fairfield, Kershaw and Sumter counties. The flu shot is available for anyone six months and older.

  • Flu shots will be administered by drive-through.
  • Please wear a short-sleeve shirt or loose-fitting clothing that can easily roll up to assist with vaccines.
